TALLINN: A former head of Danske Bank's Estonian branch, which is at the center of inquiries into the world's largest money laundering scandal, was found dead on Wednesday.
The former banker's importance in investigating the case was highlighted by the fact that he had been quizzed, as a witness, by Estonian prosecutors. Estonian prosecutors confirmed that Rehe had been questioned as a witness, not a suspect, in a case opened in December last year against 10 former Danske Bank employees. This involves the alleged laundering of around 300 million euros.Channel NewsAsia - Sentifi topic widget
"He was questioned as a witness in the case," a spokeswoman for the Estonian prosecutor's office said of Rehe, adding that the investigation was continuing.
